Art for the betterment of humankind / by Mirena Rhee

Art is really difficult to make. Especially making difficult art. I see a lot of people around me making very pretty doodles, so I've taken it upon myself to make not doodles but things that can't be easily reproduced. Because I will live long after I die I feel responsibility to take it upon myself to do what no one else will do, to take on certain tasks and projects.

The truth is I don't want to Doodle myself into tiny tiny Doodles, I don't want to box myself into icosahedrons, I don't want to sell coloring books of intersecting lines that doesn't speak to any purpose.

I see art as elevating human kind from the everyday purpose, so I take it upon myself to create art that just appears suddenly and crosses your path.

I read somewhere that the cost of anything is its cost between now and eternity, when I think about my art projects and just art in general and the kind of things I'd like to create these would be things that project ideas into the future.

And Memory Replacement New York City will be a project that projects into the future.
